Hi All,First off, Cheers to all the Brits in the group! Cherries Jubilee to you all! Being a Yank, I have no clue why the celebration is so important -- yes 60 years is a long time, but you're basically celebrating the facts that (a) she is still alive, and (b) no one has started a war for the throne. OK, maybe that last one is pretty significant. I do have the American bias though... after all, we fought a war to get out from under the monarchy.
In all seriousness, though: Good Job Queen Elizabeth! Good Job, Englanders!
And now in our game, we have some mini-celebrations. Considering the last email I received from Mike Sims, he's dancing a jig.
Some interesting moves this game, and more alliances supporting each others' moves than in any previous round! I was quite impressed by the amount of cross-support, and especially with the cross-convoy!
Also interesting: we have just as many Auto-Disbands as we do Retreats, 2 of each.Disbanded:---------------Nomads: F To-Gai-Ru
Pirates: F Land Ho
Retreats:--------------Faeries: F CEL -> Gur, or OTB
Nomads: A Bre -> Gwy, Pen, or OTB
RETREATS are due tomorrow, 6/5 at 5 PM!!!
